1. Wildly popular radio show/YouTube show host Pat McAfee announced Thursday that he has signed a new deal with FanDuel for “an absurd amount of money.”
It’s a four-year deal with an opt-out after three years, and according to Shams Charania, FanDuel will be handing over roughly $30 million a year to McAfee, who never made even close to that much during his punting days with the Colts.
McAfee won’t be pocketing $30 million per because that money most likely includes salaries for his staff as well as other budget items.
Regardless, it’s a huge deal and there are many takeaways.
